He definitely should, I have no idea why I wasn't thinking of that, idiot move there. I do still have the parts car yes, what do you need? I have it in my garage in Mayville right now.

I apologize for getting upset with you, I tend to get a little touchy about my car. And thank you for the compliments on my Supra. It's appreciated. As for checking oil, I did that and it's all nice and clear, just as it should be (changed oil last weekend). My hopes are high that I find a...

Your an idiot, I asked if there was another way of testing for BHG other than the tester, I am not planning on taking shortcuts or anything, I just asked a simple fucking question. I was unaware that you could rent the tester and you guys just jump to conclusions that I am some sort of idiot...

You need to tear the engine down and get the block machined if going the MHG route. It sounds like he is staying relatively stock, so OEM HG with proper torque and a checked/machined head will do perfectly fine.

Yea, driving on the interstate, I look in my rearview to see if i can merge, and I noticed that some smoke was coming out of the exhaust. A few miles later, my low coolant light comes on, and right when I pull off the interstate, I begin to overheat. I shut it off and coasted to the nearest...

We use it at the shop I work at, The Hot Rod Shop of Fargo, during break in. Its what our engine re-builder uses and recommends, so we do the same.

Good, I need new bushings soon. Every time I hit the brakes, there was a distinct clunk in the front end, and when work got slow I had my co worker drive the car back and forth, hitting the brake, and you could actually see the upper control arm moving back and forth, its pretty bad. So has...

Wow a front end set of Energy Bushings is only 25 bucks? I think I will be going with that.

Any first hand experiences with them?

Okay so my upper control arm bushings are shot on the passenger side up front. My question is, Is there any type of bushing that I should look into getting? I cant afford the polyurethane bushings from DM, but is there another afermarket set out there? Or should I stick with OEM?

It definitely is expensive. My other car is a 1991 Chevy Cavalier 2.2L 4cyl. Slow as hell, ugly as hell, but it gets decent gas mileage and everything works. Ill be a lot happier when I start seeing money staying in my bank account due to the Supra parked.

I know how it is to keep one of these running, it seems as though I'm always working on it. But the second I get behind the wheel I understand why I deal with the supa all the time. I have another car for a daily now so if its long term, do be it. Also after its done, it won't be my daily...

Well, I think its time to park the Supra in the garage and start driving the Crapalier... :cry: Between the oil leaks, loose front end, bad gas mileage, and countless more "little things" wrong with my car, I think I have decided to park it in the garage and start doing a rebuild, it will be...

It turned out it was the relay in the fuse box. Replaced that and all is well

Ok so I have an 87 Supra NA 5-Speed, and just today, the alarm has started going off when I unlocked the drivers door, and once I got the alarm off, the car won't start. Its to the point where if I try to reset the alarm via door lock, the alarm still goes off. It now does not go off until I...

I believe that the front sway bar links are interchangeable.

Thanks man! Now I'm just waiting to get paid so I can buy about 200 bucks in parts from z1enterprises.com . I start my new job next week, working at the Hot Rod Shop in Fargo. hotrodshopoffargo.com is the website for the shop, check it out! I hope to get the bike on the road by early to...

The carbs were all sorts of messed up. The ignition advance module was also froze solid. After the carb rebuild, and freeing up the module, I bench synced the carbs, and it fired right up!

For those who were curious about the bike. I worked on it all day today. Tore the carbs off again, bench synced them, cleaned up some stuff a little bit, and put it back together. Ill let the video speak for itself...

Well, after about a year of trying to get it to run, I finally got the old girl running! Ill let the video do the talking...
